Special Guest
Inside the Scientist’s Studio
with Professor Minoti Apte OAM
“Dancing through Science: fuelling imagination and exploration”
“The very qualities that allow us to excel at work – the meticulousness, the obsessiveness, the attention to detail – can often be a bit tiresome for people living with us at home. So learn to relax a little, be a bit more easygoing at home – keep the big picture in mind and don’t sweat the small stuff –
